Outraged Tunisians will take to the streets Tuesday to protest the treatment of a woman who was allegedly raped by police officers -- and then charged with public indecency when she filed a complaint against them.
"At best, charging the victim of a rape by police officers instead of protecting her from intimidation and stigma highlights the deep flaws on Tunisian law and criminal justice system," said Hassiba Hadj Sahraoui, deputy Middle East and North Africa program director at Amnesty International.
"At worst, it is an insidious attempt to discredit a rape victim and protect those she accused of raping her."
